    Picture Frame Diorama - Loading Bay

    Giving this is my first try, I decided to go with another loading bay theme for trucks. It was the simplest idea, since I like trucks, and had built a similar scene before. The scale is 1/24 using scratch built materials.

            I knew you'd just taken a few pictures of a real loading bay - I remember loading from there when I was a truck driver! When you going to build yours?

              Good one Dave. I know you're joking.

                  Takes me back a bit - not often that I had to back onto one though. Great job!

                    Charles,
                    Excellent work and attention to detail. Did you make the signage.

                      Thanks guys. The signs were done by downloading a high resolution photo from the internet and scaled down using a WORD processing program. Copying it out on a printer, cut out and glued on a piece of thick paper. Then glued it on.

                          Outstanding work Charles, you can’t tell one from the other. Looks so realistic.
